Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The throttle stuck in the closed position while we were traveling on the highway maintaining 65 MPH. The vsc and engine lights came on. There was suddenly no acceleration and response from the pedal so we came to a stop on the side of the road with the car in drive and the engine still on. I had a near collision when this happened a week prior in the middle of an intersection and the acceleration was lost. This is fixed temporarily by turning the engine off and back on again 5 minutes later. I had to get the whole throttle body replaced. This happened at 85,000 miles. …”
NHTSA complaint #10314109, filed 2010-02, 85,000 miles“Gas gauge erroneously indicates no fuel in gas tank (intermittent problem with fuel level sending unit, that happens when fuel level is in the 2/3 to 1/2 range. Problem lasts for a short while and will go away after driving a few miles when the fuel level in the tank drops. Toyota dealer states that there is no Toyota service bulletin for this problem.”
